Lofting is the process where you draw the pattern to full size on the boardyou will use as the rib jig.Kent> >Date: Sat, 25 Oct 2003 21:32:05 -0400> >To: "Jack Textor" > >From: Jim Ash > >Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Rib Full Size Pattern ????> >> >I'll bite.

A friend of mine had a cylinder on his C-85 loosen up in flight. By thetime he got on the ground the cylinder was mangled and so was the case. NOPAL Nuts.Go figure. You safety EVERYTHING on an airplane EXCEPT the bolts that holdthe engine together. Does this make any sense?When my buddy that trashed his engine has a visitor at his strip, he willpoke his head into the cowl to see if it has pal nuts. If the visitor doesnot, he gives the visitor a small bag with the requesite pal nuts to takewith him and install at his leisure.Use the Pal Nuts, despite what the experts say.... They are in the businessof selling engines...chris bobkaA&P IA----- Original Message -----
